Copyright problem[edit]

This article uses text from A Land Afflicted: Scotland and the Covenanter Wars, 1638-90 to which Wikipedia is not legally entitled, lacking proper licensing by the publisher. The text was added between these edits. Some examples of copyright problems include: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]

I am heartily sorry to say that it seems the article will need to be rewritten to remove any remaining text by this contributor, since he has verified that the publisher did not license its use. I am blanking the article accordingly and listing it at the copyright problems board. I hope that the contributors to this article will be able to help salvage it.

Copyright problem removed[edit]

One or more portions of this article duplicated other source(s). Infringing material has been rewritten or removed and must not be restored, unless it is duly released under a compatible license. (For more information, please see "using copyrighted works from others" if you are not the copyright holder of this material, or "donating copyrighted materials" if you are.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or published material; such additions will be deleted.

Updated[edit]

Still far from good, but I had access to some of the mentioned sources and fixed up some of the misstatements. Need to format the references properly and then tie individual statements back to them. Does anyone have a complete set of the books referred to? Only some are available online as far as I could determine.

Article rewritten[edit]

This no longer uses original material and focuses on the battle, not the trials. Robinvp11 (talk) 18:20, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

SFN citation format[edit]

I fixed the sfn citations. Do this for multiple authors: sfn|author1|author2|year|page. Do not use commas. See template:sfn. Djmaschek (talk) 03:09, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
